W.1.8	With guidance and support from adults, recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question. (1-ESS1-1),(1-ESS1-2)
Mathematics —
MP.2	Reason abstractly and quantitatively. //(1-ESS1-2)//
MP.4	Model with mathematics. //(1-ESS1-2)//
MP.5	Use appropriate tools strategically. //(1-ESS1-2)//
1.OA.A.1	Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations to represent the problem. //(1-ESS1-2)//
1.MD.C.4	Organize, represent, and interpret data with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number of data points, how many in each category, and how many more or less are in one category than in another. //(1-ESS1-2)//
